I have to remind myself this all the time. Mainly because the people around me are always joking about how I eat healthy, drink so much water, and am so serious about things. It’s really bad at the times when everyone else is eating junk food, and I’m just there snacking on fruit. But then I have to remember that I want to eat healthy, and It doesn’t matter what others think about it.
Keeping track of my day tumblr now!

It’s been so hard to eat healthy while I’m at my grandma’s house and all she wants to feed me is sweets. :/ and even harder since I got to this wedding. I ended up eating a bunch of sweets, and now I feel sick. I was doing so good until these past 2 days! I know sweets are my breaking point, because I just love the taste of them so much!! I just have to do a better job on that tomorrow, and exercise harder! I want to be in awesome shape, but that’s impossible with my bad willpower. T_T I need more motivtion!

I definitely need to do this.
A follower had asked me a question about late night eating, which has inspired me to post a little more indepth on the subject.
To succsufully loss weight, you’ll need to stop eating two - three hours before going to bed. YOu shold not feel starving before bed but you should feel slightly hungry. When you’re trying to lose weight, slipping into bed at night feeling slightly hungry is actually a good thing. It’s your body telling you that what you did that day is working — you’re losing body fat. If you don’t feel this way, you’re probably not losing fat.
Now lets say you follow your brain’s directive and eat close to bedtime, your body will not dip into the fat it has stored away, and will probably even store some more. Every time you eat, your metabolism increases slightly. But this effect is lost or minimized late at night. You don’t get the same metabolism-boosting benefit when you eat just before bed, because a couple of hours after dinner, your body begins preparing for sleep. This natural slackening of your metabolic rate overrides any metabolic boost you might get from eating. So once you hit the pillow, the only calories you’re going to use are the basic calories you need to keep your heart beating and your lungs breathing and allow your eyes to move in REM sleep. This is only a minimal number of calories.
Believe it or not, eating late at night can also inhibit your calorie-burning potential the next day. Say, for instance, that you treat yourself to a sandwich and some fat free chips at 9.:30 P.M. one night and are fast asleep by 10:30. When your alarm goes off the next morning at eight, the last thing on your mind is going to be breakfast — you’re still full from the sandwich and fat free chips you ate the night before. Chances are, you’re going to skip breakfast and lose all the metabolism-boosting benefits you’d get from eating a morning meal.
DONT EAT BEFORE BED :-)
